If you’re looking for a great Android tablet, you’ve probably found that there are only a few options around, much less if you have specific needs like a rugged tablet or one that lets you hot-swap your battery. In fact, hot-swappable batteries are practically extinct for consumer smartphones and tablets, so when a new device comes along that promises to do just, we’re bound to take note. Meet the new Galaxy Tab Active 5 Pro, an enterprise-ready rugged tablet.

The Galaxy Tab Active 5 Pro has many of the same features as the just-announced XCover 7 Pro but also has some unique tricks. The dual hot-swappable battery allows workers to replace one of the tablet’s batteries without powering it down. There’s also a No Battery Mode, which enables it to function without a battery (albeit with performance constraints) when connected to a dedicated 21W (9V 2.3A) and above power source. The tablet can also be charged through a POGO dock (in addition to the USB-C port, which is USB 3.2-enabled), which comes in handy at workplaces for simultaneously charging multiple devices. The 10,100mAh battery is also user-replaceable entirely.
